Koji je konzervativni tretman za osteoartritis koljena?

Knee osteoarthritis is progressive and you should start treatment as soon as you get the diagnosis. In many cases, the first thing to do is "conservative treatment" rather than surgery. Conservative treatment refers to "non-surgical treatment." If you are diagnosed with knee osteoarthritis, you will usually receive conservative treatment first. Because this disease is progressive, conservative treatment is positioned as a treatment to prevent its continued development. When the condition worsens, surgery will be the only way.

An important indicator when considering the treatment of knee osteoarthritis is grade, which represents the degree of disease progression. Level 1 is preliminary, level 2 is early stage, level 3 is advanced, and level 4 is final. Although this depends on the condition of the individual's knee, surgery of grade 3 or higher is usually recommended.

A person diagnosed with knee osteoarthritis should have some symptoms, including pain. Usually, the cause of pain is inflammation caused by worn cartilage stimulating the synovium (the membrane that covers the knee joint). The inflammation is usually treated directly by prescribing anti-inflammatory analgesics or injections. If you continue to take it for a while and it doesn't work, you may be prescribed a slightly stronger pain reliever. Initially, hyaluronic acid was a component contained in synovial fluid. It filled the joints and played a role in helping the knee joint to move smoothly. However, hyaluronic acid is reduced in knee osteoarthritis. Gradually, the knees became difficult to move, and the bones collided with each other, causing pain and rattling. In order to eliminate this situation, doctors need to inject hyaluronic acid directly into the knee joint of the patient. It is widely used in orthopedics. In most cases, the injection is given once a week for about a month, and then every 2 to 4 weeks.

Osim lijekova, vrlo je važna i terapija vježbanjem. Svrha tjelovježbe je vježbanje mišića oko koljena, ali najvažniji su kvadricepsi na prednjoj strani bedra. Kod ozljede koljena većina pacijenata misli da treba šutjeti, ali ako duže vrijeme ne vježbaju mišići će oslabiti, a opterećenje koljena će se povećati čak i ako se odmarate. Dakle, svrha terapije vježbanjem nije stvaranje takvog začaranog kruga, već stvaranje vrlinskog kruga. Pacijenti bi trebali proći rehabilitacijsku obuku pod vodstvom fizioterapeuta ili trenera. Trening snage oko koljena je efikasan i za teški osteoartritis koljena. Izvještaj o istraživanju sa univerziteta u Iranu pokazao je da su pacijenti sa upalom zgloba koljena podijeljeni u grupu za terapiju vježbanjem i grupu bez{0}}terapijskih vježbi radi posmatranja. Rezultati su pokazali da je u grupi sa terapijom vježbanjem bol pacijenata značajno poboljšana.
